The second close-up today, I hope you don't mind. I came across this lad some minutes ago when looking through my stock - thought it would be worth sharing!Stephanie Adams May 26, 2019
What a neat shot! I find it interesting birdie, really neat. Do you sell your work? #20443Sharon E. Lowe May 26, 2019
birdie - I love it! I like to look for interesting fungus and mushrooms but have yet to achieve anything quite this beautiful with any of mine! #20444Donna R. Moratelli May 26, 2019
What a unearthly image. What equipment was used to record this. Great work Birdie?. #20465Carol Engstrom May 26, 2019
I've never seen one that looked that pretty. Really nice colors in this birdie. I like the leaf at the bottom too--really completes the coposition. As far as I'm concerned you can post as many pictures as you want each day. I love to see your work. #20470Carolyn M. Fletcher May 26, 2019

Stunning! wonderful work :o) #20489Wolfgang Dolak May 26, 2019
Thanks to everybody for your encouraging comments! I really appreciate them.Stephanie: I rarely sell any of my work (I must say I am not very enthusiastic to do so...).
Maybe more in the future...
Donna: This is an indoor shot with artificial light from the top and a little from underneath, no flash - I hate that. The camera used was a Nikon Coolpix 5700 in macro. I sort of fell over this wonderful fungus when I was walking back to my car after having tried to photograph wild boar without success. It was so dark, that I had to do it inside. To take "objects" - what a bad word for nature - home I always have some plastic boxes with wet kitchen towels ready for that purpose in my backpack - better not help me carry it!! ;-)
I'll post another one tomorrow - YOUR fault!

How do you like that camera birdie? Is it everything that they claim it is? .I have been thinking about buying the Nikon 5700 as my first digital. #20521Donna R. Moratelli May 26, 2019
How big was the fungus? I am really facinated with this image. #20525Wolfgang Dolak May 26, 2019
Hi Donna!Donna R. Moratelli May 26, 2019
Thanks for the INFO! I immensely appreciate it. It has taken me months to finally come up with the decision to get that camera..I didn't realize that digitals had noise like film grain though.(OH NO) ; How does it do if it is set at 50 asa and the shutter is under 1/30? How much noise does it have. Doesn't the low ASA reduce noise? Do you have any examples. .. What was this picure shot at? I don't see noise and it had to have been a show shutter speed> What was the ASA? Do you remember? Thanks for all of the excellent info.. I'll take you advice regarding the 256 MBG card and grip. THANKS AGAIN BIRDIE! #20544Wolfgang Dolak May 26, 2019
Sorry for the delay, Donna. Was jogging in the rain. All wet and sweaty now - the shower will be nice!!!Donna R. Moratelli May 26, 2019
Thanks for all of that great info Birdie, It's priceless. I think that I still may need to do a litttle bit more research before I buy> #20712Wolfgang Dolak May 26, 2019
